This two-bedroom apartment sits on the fourth floor of a residential building in Torrequebrada, Benalmádena, completed in 2002 and now offered key-ready. The property covers 152 m² of built area, of which 67 m² is interior living space and 86 m² belongs to a private, south-facing terrace with panoramic views over the Mediterranean. Sold fully furnished with a fixed asking price of €350,000, the home includes air conditioning, a lift-served building, one parking space, and access to communal gardens and a swimming pool. Playa de la Yuca lies roughly 200 metres away as the crow flies.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment stands in the beachside district of Torrequebrada on the Benalmádena coast, at approximately 26 metres above sea level. The nearest beach, Playa de la Yuca, is about 0.2 km away in a straight line, with two further beaches within 0.6 km. The gradient down to the shore is around 5.5%, a moderate slope that becomes part of the daily walk to the sea. Málaga city lies 19 km away as the crow flies.
Functionally, the home offers two bedrooms, one bathroom, a living room with dining area, a fully equipped kitchen, a utility room and a separate storage room. Fitted wardrobes provide practical storage, while the 86 m² terrace with covered and uncovered zones extends the usable living space outdoors. The south-facing orientation brings daylight into the rooms throughout the day, and the building is served by a lift.
This is not a new-build project. The building dates from 2002, and the apartment is key-ready, which means it can be occupied directly after purchase. The property is sold fully furnished. Any dates relating to completion are historical rather than indicative of future construction; the delivery year of 2002 should be treated as a stated fact of the building's age.
The property has one bathroom for two bedrooms, and the interior living space is 67 m², with the remainder of the built area accounted for by the terrace and balcony. There is no private pool; swimming facilities are communal within the complex. One parking space is included, and no further garage capacity is stated. The data does not mention underfloor heating, a jacuzzi, or seafront frontline positioning.

This property fits a buyer whose priority is outdoor space and sea views rather than interior volume. A household of one or two people, or a family using the apartment as a second home, can work comfortably within two bedrooms and one bathroom, provided the morning routine does not require separate washing facilities. The 86 m² terrace is the defining feature: buyers who intend to spend most of the year eating, reading and relaxing outdoors will use it daily, while those who mainly want large interior rooms may find the 67 m² living area compact. The location suits a car-light lifestyle. With six bus lines and 50 stops nearby, plus Torremuelle station 1.6 km away and Benalmádena, Arroyo de la Miel station 2.2 km away as the crow flies, commuting along the coast or into Málaga is feasible by public transport. Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport lies approximately 11 km in a straight line, which shortens travel for frequent flyers, though the proximity also places the home under flight paths depending on wind direction and runway use, a factor worth checking on site. The apartment also fits an investor profile: Torrequebrada sits in a tourist corridor with 24 hotels and over 11,000 beds nearby, indicating steady seasonal rental demand, subject to local licensing rules. Buyers seeking a modern energy-efficient new build, more than one bathroom, or a private pool should look elsewhere; this is a furnished, completed home from 2002 whose value lies in its terrace, orientation and position close to the beach.
The apartment was completed in 2002 and reflects the construction standards of that period on the Costa del Sol. Floors are finished in marble and ceramic, a common combination in the region at the time, combining a hard-wearing surface in the main rooms with ceramic in service areas. The kitchen is fully equipped, and the property is sold furnished, meaning the buyer acquires a home that can be occupied immediately, though the age and condition of appliances and furniture should be assessed during a viewing. Climate control consists of air conditioning, which handles cooling in summer; the data does not mention central heating, so winter comfort will depend on the AC units and the south-facing orientation, which brings passive solar gain through the cooler months. Storage is addressed in three ways: fitted wardrobes in the bedrooms, a utility room for laundry equipment, and a separate storage room. The 86 m² terrace is divided into covered and uncovered areas, which effectively provides an all-season outdoor room shielded from midday sun and occasional rain. The building has a lift, an essential practical detail given the fourth-floor position. Within the complex, the communal gardens and pool are described as maintained, and one parking space in the garage is included. As with any home over twenty years old, buyers are advised to commission an independent technical survey covering the building's structure, plumbing, electrical installation and the watertightness of the terrace, the element most exposed to the maritime climate.
The apartment is offered as an existing home at a fixed asking price of €350,000. This is not a from-price on a price list; it is the stated asking price for this specific property. The home is sold fully furnished and key-ready, which reduces the immediate cost of making it habitable, though buyers should verify the condition of a 2002 building through their own survey. Included in the purchase are one parking space and access to the communal pool and gardens. For context in the wider region, nearby new-build projects such as Aquamar in Torre del Mar start from €269,950, Lantana Residencial in Mijas from €205,000, and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona from €321,000, figures that reflect smaller or differently positioned units rather than direct equivalents.
Daily life in this apartment revolves around the relationship between indoor and outdoor space. With 67 m² of interior living area and an 86 m² private terrace, most of the home's usable surface lies in the open air. The south-facing orientation means the terrace receives sun throughout the day, while the covered section allows use during the hotter hours or in cooler months. The living room with dining area connects to this outdoor zone, so meals, reading and relaxation naturally shift between the two. The fourth-floor position, reached by lift, frames panoramic sea views across the Mediterranean, and the balcony off the bedroom adds a second outdoor corner. The surrounding neighbourhood is a consolidated coastal district rather than a resort complex. Within two kilometres there are 47 restaurants, 10 cafés, 7 pharmacies, 4 schools, 2 banks and a hospital, which places everyday services within a short radius of the front door. The rhythm of the area follows the coast: mornings can begin with the walk down to Playa de la Yuca, roughly 200 metres away in a straight line, with the moderate 5.5% gradient shaping the return. The communal gardens and pool give the building its own outdoor shared space, useful when a trip to the beach feels like too much. Public transport is well represented locally, with 6 lines and 50 stops in the vicinity, so errands in Benalmádena or towards Fuengirola do not strictly require a car. The apartment suits a household that values outdoor living and sea views, with the interior kept compact and functional around two bedrooms and one bathroom.
The immediate surroundings combine residential calm with a dense service offering. Within a two-kilometre radius, the neighbourhood counts 47 restaurants, 10 cafés, 7 pharmacies, 4 schools, 2 banks and a hospital, alongside 13 primary schools and 11 secondary schools in the wider area. This density means that daily shopping, medical appointments and school runs can all be handled locally without travelling into the larger towns. Healthcare is covered by two health centres in addition to the hospital. For leisure, three beaches lie within 600 metres of the front door: Playa de la Yuca at 0.2 km, Playa Benalnatura at 0.5 km and Playa Las Viborillas at 0.6 km, all measured in a straight line. Sports facilities include the Club de Raqueta at 1.6 km, an ice rink at 2.3 km and a hockey club at 2.9 km. Golfers can use the Benalmádena Pitch & Putt at 2.3 km, with the Miguel Ángel Jiménez course at 7.7 km and Lauro Golf at 10.5 km. The area is tourist-oriented, with 24 hotels and roughly 11,150 beds, so the neighbourhood is noticeably busier in summer and quieter in the off-season, a rhythm typical of the central Costa del Sol. Public transport is strong for a coastal district: six lines and fifty stops serve the area, and the Cercanías railway stations at Torremuelle (1.6 km) and Benalmádena, Arroyo de la Miel (2.2 km) connect the district with Málaga and Fuengirola.
The map shows the apartment's position in Torrequebrada, just inland from the beaches of Benalmádena's coast. Note how the three nearest beaches cluster within 600 metres, while the railway stations at Torremuelle and Arroyo de la Miel anchor the connections towards Málaga and Fuengirola. Málaga city and its airport lie a short distance up the coast.

Torrequebrada occupies a middle position on the Costa del Sol between the major urban poles. Málaga, the provincial capital with roughly 579,000 inhabitants, is 19 km away in a straight line to the north-east; Marbella, at 147,958 inhabitants, is 31 km to the south-west. This places the apartment in the densely developed central stretch of the coast, where towns merge into a near-continuous built-up area. Benalmádena itself sits between Torremolinos and Fuengirola, both connected by the coastal railway. The location is closer to the airport than most of the coast: 11 km versus considerably more for Marbella or Estepona, which matters for buyers who travel frequently.
Accessibility is one of the strong points of this location. Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport is approximately 11 km away as the crow flies, one of the shorter airport distances on the coast, while Gibraltar Airport is 86 km in a straight line for connections to the UK. Málaga city, with a population of around 579,000, lies 19 km away, and Marbella 31 km, both reachable by car or by the coastal railway. The train is a genuine alternative to driving here: Torremuelle station is 1.6 km from the building and Benalmádena, Arroyo de la Miel 2.2 km, with Carvajal a further option at 4.2 km. Locally, six bus lines and fifty stops cover daily trips, so a car is convenient but not essential. The beach is a short walk: Playa de la Yuca sits 0.2 km away in a straight line, with a moderate 5.5% gradient on the way back up. For electric vehicle owners, the Fuengirola Supercharger is 4.2 km away. The marina at Puerto Deportivo de Fuengirola, at 7.6 km, is the nearest significant harbour for boats and waterfront leisure.

The climate data points to a typical Mediterranean coastal regime. The average annual temperature is 18.6°C, warm enough that the air conditioning earns its keep in July and August while winters remain mild. The swimming season lasts about four months, defined by sea temperatures of 20°C or above, running roughly from June into early autumn; outside that window, sea swimming is possible for the hardy but not comfortable for most. The elevation of 26 metres above sea level keeps the apartment close to the shore while lifting it enough for unobstructed panoramic views. The 5.5% gradient towards the beach is moderate, noticeable on foot but manageable for most people, and irrelevant by car. The nearest viewpoint, Mirador del Madroño, sits 4.9 km away for walks with elevated views of the coastline. Rainfall concentrates in the cooler months, as is normal for southern Spain, and the south-facing orientation means the terrace captures maximum sunshine between rain-free periods.

Beach access is the defining recreational asset here. Three beaches sit within 600 metres: Playa de la Yuca (0.2 km), Playa Benalnatura (0.5 km) and Playa Las Viborillas (0.6 km), all straight-line distances. This means the sea is effectively an extension of daily life rather than a destination requiring planning. Beyond swimming, the coastal path that links Benalmádena's beaches supports walking and cycling along the shoreline. Golf is well served at several levels: the Benalmádena Pitch & Putt at 2.3 km suits short practice, the Torrequebrada-area Miguel Ángel Jiménez course lies 7.7 km away, and Lauro Golf at 10.5 km offers an 18-hole inland alternative. Racket sports, ice skating and hockey are covered by the Club de Raqueta (1.6 km), the Club Municipal de Hielo (2.3 km) and the Club Hockey Benalmádena (2.9 km). For days out, the Puerto Deportivo de Fuengirola marina at 7.6 km provides waterfront dining and boat trips. The communal pool within the complex adds a convenient option that avoids the sand and the summer crowds altogether.

Moderate
Set against comparable offerings along the Costa del Sol, this apartment occupies a distinct position. The nearby new-build comparables start lower, Aquamar in Torre del Mar from €269,950, Lantana Residencial in Mijas from €205,000 and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona from €321,000, but these are from-prices on price lists, typically for smaller units in earlier construction phases, and often further from the beach. This property, by contrast, is a completed home from 2002 with a fixed price, sold furnished, and with its headline feature already in place: 86 m² of private south-facing terrace with sea views, plus 67 m² of interior space across two bedrooms and one bathroom. The location comparison is also instructive. Torre del Mar and Estepona are further from Málaga airport and the provincial capital, which matters for buyers who fly regularly; Torrequebrada's roughly 11 km straight-line distance to the airport is among the shortest on the coast. Benalmádena itself is more urban and tourist-oriented than inland Mijas, with 24 hotels and over 11,000 beds nearby, meaning livelier summers and quieter winters. Housing turnover in the area runs at around 2,070 transactions per year, indicating an active resale market, and the median provincial income of €16,450 sets the economic backdrop for local pricing. Buyers weighing this property against new builds should weigh the trade-off directly: modern construction and energy standards on one side versus immediate availability, a furnished interior, an established neighbourhood, and a terrace of this scale on the other. The single bathroom and 2002 construction are the main points of comparison to test during a viewing.
